Trois Rivières
Location: Martinique
Bartender: Steffi Emilen
Right along the waterfront, a short walk from the cruise ship pier, are markets filled with vendors selling their local wares and fun outside bars offering a variety of places to try the local drinks.
My bartender, Lucie, with a smile as bright as the sunny day, concocted a local specialty rum drink called “Ti-punch.”
The super refreshing, free-spirited drink of the day was a Nojito, a delightful surprise that added just the spark I needed for my day.
After the fall
The bar side view
WHOOPS!
Rather than flashing back to a past calamity, this bright and sunny day provided the perfect environment for a fiasco right there on the spot.
After strolling the boardwalk and ordering my drinks, I saw people posing for pictures in front of a bench and a giant monkey statue holding a sign that said “Bar!”
Since I rarely get photos of myself, this would be an opportunity to change that. Little did I know, this seemingly innocent photo op would lead to a series of hilarious mishaps.
What could possibly go wrong? You can read all about it in my blog, Trips and Falls.
